When I registered on e621, I was going to call myself "Dunkelzahn" ("dark tooth" in German, name of a dragon in the Shadowrun RPG).

But then I thought, "that's not very original". Maybe "Funkelzahn" (glitter tooth) is better. Google gave me hundreds of results for that name, so I needed something else.

Eventually, I came up with "Munkelzahn" (rumor tooth). It doesn't mean anything, but it appeared nowhere on Google.

edit:
Mantikor is the German name of the manticore

I'm fascinated by computer viruses and also I'm generally just really fucking depressed all the time lol

I wanted a name that would have no reference to who I actually am, so far seperated from everything else I use that no one could relate this account back to me. Lunar because at the time I thought of Luna from MLP which i don't watch or talk about, and -E is short for Eclipse which just goes well with Lunar but is harder to understand.

Dimoret -> Weavile, but in french
Pinel -> Philippe-Pinel psychiatric institute, located in Québec.
That province’s official language is french, which is why I picked the french name for weavile.

It’s from a bit of an inside joke between friends, that I’m so obsessed with weavile I could end up interned over it.

Types of penis? What are the other types?
Searching up "Elkman" on google gives me a management company.

I dont know if i can send the link on here but write penis type 4chan horseman elkman
There's a few different types like horseman deerman elkman dancingman coyoteman etc... hi from QC btw

I won't get into specifics but the profession I do for a living requires the use of hazmat suits, and so they have grown on me as I enjoy how they look and feel. "Honie" is just the female equivalent of Homie so I just smashed the two together. Other ideas I had included "HazmatTomboy" or "HazmatGF" or "BigBreastedHazmatLady" but In my opinion Hazmat Honie just worked better.

Back in the day Bronies were a newer thing to me. I believe it was 2010 or so, when my friends started watching MLP FIM and everyone was watching. I thought it was weird, but they were still my friends. So i'd tease em about watching the show. But I thought to myself "what if I teased them with references from the show?" Y'know. Just an extra spice to show, i'm just messin with yah & maybe it'd be funnier to them. Back then there was up till season 3 but sooner than that was this awesome guy DISCORD lord of chaos. I loved everything about him (non rom or sexual)! His voice, design, personality, what he stood for! I wanted to be like him, so I looked up on google "synonyms to Discord" and came across Tumult "a loud, confused noise, especially one caused by a large mass of people." That's who I wanted to be, and still do. So I donned the Title. Before then I was Megahero or CrownedClown (shout out to d.grayman & megaman fans out there).

I just picked a rhymey phrase that accurately describes how I feel when entering this hexagonal layer of Hell (and also that had nothing to do with my writing alias, because God forbid that gets connected to me here... wait I already have that in my art post don't I?).

WOw this certainly is an old thread

Well I had a previous username I used when my artwork was humanoid character/SFW focused. My persona was a deity that kind of quietly ruled over the universe my OCs lived in, as an allegory for me being that world's creator. The character was entirely black and white to represent a sketch on a mostly blank canvas. That character had existed for 10 years; I have yet to make a furry equivalent for him but it's probably going to happen eventually. As such, he is the source of my "online name", Vubby. A name I didn't choose myself but... I'll explain more...

I don't really want to directly state what my old username was but it had the word "ichor" in it as a direct reference to that old persona character.

Now I have a bad track record of choosing usernames and then going "meh" and the only ones that have really stuck over my many years of internetting have been names directly related to my age-old "online name", Vubby. Which in itself is shorthand for another username, which was the full name of that deity character who was my old persona... I know that's a little complex lol. But "Vubby" came about... geez, over 10 years ago now. Because someone couldn't pronounce my deity persona's name and so it began that people would shorten it - Vubby, Vb, Vubbs, Vub, etc. To this day, it brightens my day when people can come up with new and creative nicknames for me, as it feels like keeping up with a tradition which was started by some of my very first internet friends in my youth.

When I reincarnated anew on the furry side of the internet as an anthro artist, I didn't want to overthink my username. It was simple enough to start by combining my name and sona species, which at the time was "vubbybunny". Then I later realized I preferred using a shark for my sona and mostly prefer scalies in general, so it became "vubbyshark". And the rest is history yet to be written!

I made the username "alexrandomkat" when I was like 8, used it for everything up until I made a number of dedicated nsfw accounts and figured I wanted something different.

So I took my sona name Kat, thought of urushiol (a group of chemicals causing the allergic dermatitis that poison ivy, oak, and sumac are known for), realized it's a catechol derivative, and bang. Katechol. (I totally have a healthy relationship with my nsfw side...)

Alternative etymology, dopamine is a catecholamime. Also very fitting for a nsfw account.

How I got my name is…unusual…
Back when I was in middle school, my mom and I were having a completely bullshit, just for fun conversation. I do not remember what it was, but she mentioned that something was the cow of fire.
That phrase stuck with me, and now I use it about everywhere on the internet.

I got it from this old ass video. I just thought it was funny when I was a kid, and I really like the Metal Gear series so I ended up using it on a bunch of places. Although nowadays I usually go by Dante because he is one of the coolest characters in all of fiction, and if you don't believe me here's proof

I realized that having my e6 username the same as everywhere else was not a good idea, and so I spontaneously came up with ja_pfirsich_eistee (ja_peach_ice_tea). Because I like Peach ice tea, and specifically had the one from the brand Ja!.

I like Switzerland and Vore but Eka's portal wouldn't allow 'switzvoreland' due to profanity, still not sure why.

I originally only made this account to use the blacklist feature and look at pics. Lonetraveler was the first thing that came to my mind because since i only used this account for the aforementioned until very recently i likened it to being a drifter who comes by this place from time to time.

I picked mine as a way of being all sneaky, like "Ah hah! This will surely throw people off my trail! They'll never suspect I'd call myself a girl!"
... So anyway, I came out as trans and I'm a girl now XD

I kinda stole mine lol. Ages ago I made an account for the game APB and one of the first thing I saw when I loaded into the game was some dude just rocketing down the street off into the distance and above his head, in big, bold, white text was 'FATASSONTHELOOSE' and for some reason that scene has been stuck in my head ever since. I have no other memories about the actual game but that legend lives rent free in my head. I have no idea where he is now or what became of him but I shall carry on his mantle.

The first part of my username is an shortened wording of "Ferikkusu" (Japanese translation of Felix, according to Google). I liked to draw little doodles while also having an liking for the number "6" for some reason. And so I slapped all the pieces together and somehow got this. I liked it though, so I kept it for a while.

Originally my name was EpicBoss1234 but I felt that was just kinda lame and a bit childish. Eventually though I found my current pfp while randomly browsing and I decided to change my name to SirEpicLad13. The "Sir" and "lad" are the words that came to mind upon seeing the image and i kept the "Epic" part just because it sounded cool. Then I just added 13 instead of 1234 because 1234 sounds well... Lazy. Plus, 13 is ironically my lucky number so I just decided to go with that.

Ironically enough, I feel like this name is more childish than my original one...

I wanted it to be kinda nondescript but also reflect the species of my fursona. It also has something to do with my country, although I'm far away from Syberia xD

Long time ago, when the internet was young and I was a teenage dipshit, I went on a writing forum where the outcome of a story was decided by votes. I made a poor first impression and then made it worse. To the point where I was banned off of the forum and made a bigger fool of myself trying to apologize. I took a year off, found a porn forum called Stuffed! that had things on it that appealed to my growing fetishes.

I wanted a new name (I have since reclaimed the old one, having regained my confidence), so I came up with one. I liked Fanfiction, both writing and reading. I was on a Fetish website. So... Fanfic Fetishist. I slowly introduced myself, being far more polite than I was. I have since embraced the ways of courtesy.

wwwwwwwww

Privileged

people probably mis-guess my username's meaning a lot, since i translate japanese posts and a "w" is how japanese people type "lol"

but in reality, it was a result of me trying to think of a proper username for an account i'm not gonna do any networking or personal discussion with.

i remember way back as a kid, (since W is the widest standard english character) people realized if you just spammed W's until the character limit for your username on some xbox games it would break out of the text box and cause visual errors. so among all the XxXDRAGOND3M0NLonerKILLERwolfXxX, fuckedurmomsbutt6969, and eminemsteelers98 's old game lobbies were filled with, there'd often just be the one WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW【…】who didn't give af about their username and just wanted to be a dipshit. since whatever i named this account ultimately wouldn't matter at all as i'm keeping my identity completely anonymous and mostly just using it to look at weird porn, it felt right

My original username was because I couldn't think of any username, so i just called myself anyusrname.

My current one one was, in all honesty, auto-generated by my password manager lol

I was looking into the history of why furry conventions and fandom sites like furaffinity, etc exist and I remember it being referred to as the "funny animal fandom" in some accounts. That was what came to mind when I created my account.

I couldn't think of a name that didn't make it obvious who I am to people who know me (I know some people who are ridiculously nosy), so I made it up. It's completely random and doesn't mean anything lol

I'm mean my name is simple. I love dragons and furrys. I also did it as a I'm not gonna stay here long. Welp I've been here for a minute.

You will Laugh. It will be soon. Instant. The next time you will laugh, it will be because of my username.

Every time I read "furrys" instead of "furries", I think of churros with fur and cat ears.

Man screw you for being right.

Years ago I started an Incest story set in MLP with original characters. The guy's name was Scotch Novel. He had a twin Sister. Hence Noveltwin.

my name is kinda simple really
i like to joke about my sanity being gone/lost whenever i do crazy shit soo
might as well make it my name on here right?

Came up with it on the spot as a throwaway name. It's a reference to a phrase often used to describe Mia from Fire Emblem 9/10 in an almost entirely deleted series with the various units basically fighting each other (she is a crit machine and a pretty good unit).
It also happens to be a double entendre, especially since I use it on sites with lewd material almost exclusively. It amuses me a little. I'm not actually obsessed with any Mias in particular.

I was kinda getting bored of the username I usually use for gaming and such. When coming up with a new name, I wanted it to hint to my interests, but be kinda niche in the references. I chose Titanus, the designation of the Titans in the Monsterverse, and Optronix, one of the pre-war names for Optimus Prime in some continuities. I’m currently in the process of trying to apply this name to some of my other online accounts.

i like goats, and butts, especially butts with a fluffy stubby goat tail, and since this is e6 of all places, i decided having a sexual innuendo as a username would be most satisfactory.

Pretty simple

Name of my first main Fursona, thought it would be rather fitting for here back when I created the account X3

Me likey Shoegaze band, me born ‘92 🤤

It helps that Slowdive as a band name rules since it sounds so wavy and spaced out.

My original username was in reference to two songs, and their music videos.
Let Forever Be by The Chemical Brothers
Die Slow by Health

I later came to recognize the narrative I had built in LetForeverDieSlow(ly). "Forever" as in Stability.

It was originally from some other site and it was supported to be TheBorder[Something]. I don't remember what that Something was supposed to be anymore, but it didn't fit the name length restrictions on that site, so I just shortened it to TheBorder and used it some other places, including here.

I needed a name that seemed anonymous and while John Doe was the first choice, too many people had that already.

Well 3-methylmorphine is one of my favorite meds. It is synthesised from morphine nowadays but is present in opium. Also known as codeine the drug provides sedation, euphoria, anxiety relief and analgesia. It is morphines pro drug, meaning metabolism to another drug is required to make an effect, although there is debate about this. Once taken the liver metabolizes codeine into morphine and other metabolites and it binds to the mu opioid receptors along pain transmission pathways. It is a controlled drug in many parts of the world. It is only obtainable on prescription. So this is the basic story of my new username.

Can generate AI image using Stable Diffusion based software. So we got Yet Another AI user. While that site is not AI releated, I already used that site long time ago, but registered initially on e6ai to upload my AI generated images. Later I registered here. Because why not? I anyway will not break rule that restricts uploading AI stuff.

There’s e621, e926, now e6ai. Are there any other e6’s I don’t know about?

I sometimes have repentine name changes, and the name "buzzcap" came beacuse i was changing the name of my discord account, and decided to put "buzzcappp" beacuse it sounded silly
